On-site Training

My company hired Alan through a third party to teach an in house Level I class. As a Level IV analyst, I took it for recertification points and I figured if I got one good tidbit from the class it would be worth it. I wound up up taking over 4 pages of notes and only wish I had been able to take a class from Alan sooner. The information is not new, but the way he presents it and the approach he uses for vibration analysis makes it very easy to understand and is a great starting point for any Level I or a great refresher for a humbled Level IV like me.

Cat IV Training

Alan was my CAT IV teacher, and he was able to pass on in a very limited amount of time some substantial and complex concept to which I had not previously been exposed.
He has a very strong background and takes pride on following up on all questions raised during the class, irrespective of whether he can answer on the spot or if he needs to stay up the whole night to get an answer.
It was a real pleasure being his student and I recommend his courses to anyone who is involved in condition monitoring.

Cat IV Training

“Highly Recommended”
I have taken many courses as a vibration analyst and I am pleased to highly recommend Alan as a preferred training instructor. Although I am not an engineer, Alan was able to breakdown the complex problems and theories to give me a complete understanding of the material in the CAT IV training. He recognizes if your struggling and will work one on one with you as needed.

Cat IV Vibration Training

Mr. Friedman is an amazing instructor. His vast knowledge is derived from actual working experience and provides “usable” information, not just an explanation of foreign theories. Upon returning from the Cat IV review session, I immediately began to use that which I had learned to become a better and more confident analyst. Alan is also enthusiastic, which helps keep his students focused on subjects that would otherwise seem dry and monotonous. Furthermore, he keeps the class engaged and works individually with each person to ensure that no one gets left behind. Because of Alan, I feel that I learned and retained more knowledge from 4 days of instruction than I would have from several months of self study.

Cat IV Vibration Instruction

Alan taught me the Cat IV class before the exam. He has excellent real world knowledge of how to apply these fundamentals to machinery analysis.
His teaching cadence was great and clear. The topics were covered in a professional way that was not monotonous. I appreciate him taking the time to answer questions from all of the students.

Highly recommended trainer

I attended a Mobius Cat IV training course led by Alan. Alan delivered the training well, to time and without appearing the slightest bit flustered by any of the delegate’s questions. The atmosphere in the classroom was great and he was very patient. He responded well to student’s areas of weakness as we prepared for a five hour certification exam on the final day. Highly recommended as a trainer.

Vibration analysis field experience

I attended Alan’s Category II Vibration Analysis class a few weeks ago. Alan’s experience in the field and practical know-how really shone through. I thought he very effectively blended the course material with insight into how to think through the kinds of situations that analysts will often face on the job. I think this is essential for analysts to truly be effective and successful. I would certainly recommend his class to others.

Complex problems made easy

I’ve had the pleasure of taking my CAT II vibration training with Alan and can say it was by far the most I have learned in my career as a vibration analyst. He was able to effectively communicate the standards we should meet as a CBM program and how we fit into the overall reliability of the facilities we work in. It was a great opportunity to take advantage of his years of experience and hear how he was able to take complex problems and questions and explain them in a way that anyone could understand. I’m thankful for the time and responsibility Alan and the Mobius Institute have taken to train reliability leaders around the world and recommend taking advantage of any opportunity to learn from them. I look forward to CAT III training with Alan and the Mobius team in the future.

Great instructor

Great instructor, class was very educational, looking forward to the next class

Informative and interesting

I recently attended a Category I Mobius class in the Dallas Fort Worth area of Texas. Alan was the Instructor. I am new to the vibration analysis and reliability sector and was not sure of what I was getting into. I can say that Alan made the class very informative and interesting. He explained things completely and answered questions without hesitation. I highly recommend him if you get the chance to attend a class. I am looking forward to signing up for Cat II when I can.

From the fundamentals to the advanced analyst

Alan is a “Boots on the Ground” analyst with real world field experience across many industries. He has a knack for teaching vibration analysis from the fundamentals to the advanced analyst. Alan has worked with many of the condition monitoring and analysis programs in the market today and can transition easily to what you’re employing. For me with 11 years vibration analysis experience, Alan put in extra time during breaks, lunches, and off the clock, to help in areas that I lacked experience and had some struggles. And if that isn’t enough, he’s a pretty cool guy too.

Knowledge that I will be able to apply to my job

I recently took Category III Vibration Analysis which was instructed by Alan. I was very pleased with the training, and I would recommend Alan as an instructor. Not only did I end the week prepared for the exam, but I also gained a lot of practical knowledge that I will be able to apply to my job. The difficult concepts covered in the class were easy to understand with the animations and the methods of teaching. Thanks for the training, and I will look to you for future vibration analysis training.

Very knowledgeable and clear instructor

Very knowledgeable and clear instructor. If considering for Machine Vibration Analysis training, I highly recommend.

Vibraciones Categoría IV

Tuve la oportunidad de tener como instructor de vibraciones Categoría IV a Alan Friedman.
Tiene muy buenos conocimientos de rotodinámica y dinámica de estructuras, utiliza ejemplos muy claros y cotidianos que facilitan el entendimiento de los alumnos, se esmera en comprender todas las dudas y ofrece respuestas claras en el momento o al día siguiente si es que requieren mayor análisis. El material que utiliza es de primera calidad.
Un gran fortaleza de Alan es su capacidad de generar empatia con las personas, eso posibilita la comunicación, facilita la interacción y el aprendizaje.
Alan tiene como idioma nativo el Ingles, pero entiende y habla bien el español.

Análisis de Vibraciones CAT-IV en Colombia

Alan fue mi instructor en el curso de Análisis de Vibraciones CAT-IV en Colombia. Las cualidades de enseñanza de Alan son muchas entre las que puedo destacar el énfasis que pone al explicar los temas que considera importantes de modo que no hayan puntos que no se trataron al momento de rendir el examen. También es destacable su disposición para que sus alumnos participen en la solución de temas complejos y compartan sus experiencias durante la clase. Finalmente, quiero resaltar su alta capacidad de transmisión de conocimientos en un idioma diferente a su lengua madre, en este caso español, al tratarse de un tema con alto contenido técnico.

If and when I take a cat 3 I’ll make sure you’re the instructor

Above and beyond

Alan Friedman taught a class I attended for CAT I vibration analysis in Seattle this past month. During this time, he went above and beyond to not only teach the criteria for the course, but also provide professional guidance for each of us individually. I was overly prepared for the certification exam, and feel confident knowing I can bring value back to my company. Through his dedication, I know I got the best out of my time in the course. Overall, Alan was a wonderful teacher and I had nothing but a wonderful experience in the class.

Excellent vibration training

I would like to thank Alan for the excellent vibration training of Cat II during the month of May 2019 to my engineers and craftsman! The students were able to to understand the vibration concepts and how they can be applied on their day-to-day job due to the simplicity that Alan was able to explain them during the training sections. Kudos to you!!
